How To Install And Run Android 4.0 On Mac, Windows PC Or Linux [Tutorial]

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br /> <div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="background-color: white;">The mobile smartphone and tablet industry seems to have a very prominent divide, with a lot of consumers having their favorite operating system and choosing to stick to hardware which is powered by their chosen OS. Obviously fans of Apple’s iOS use the iPhone and iPad devices, whereas Android lovers have a wide range of hardware to choose from due to the fact that the OS is available to multiple manufacturers.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="background-color: white;">But what happens if you are a die hard fan of iOS, or Windows Phone but you still want to sample the delights that Android Ice Cream Sandwich has to offer? I personally am an iPhone user for the last five years and will continue to be for the foreseeable future. But after recently getting my first taste of Android, I am severely tempted to shell out for a second device so I can have the benefits that both provide. For those that can’t, or won’t, purchase a second device then why not run Android 4.0 in virtualization on your desktop or laptop in order to see the Ice Cream Sandwich experience first hand?</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><img height="225" src="http://cdn.redmondpie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Ice_Cream_Sandwich_Logo.jpg" style="-webkit-box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; background-image: none !important; background-position: initial initial !important; background-repeat: initial initial !important; border: none !important; box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding: 2px;" width="300" /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-51145" height="459" src="http://cdn.redmondpie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Window1.png" style="-webkit-box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; background-image: none !important; background-position: initial initial !important; background-repeat: initial initial !important; border: none !important; box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; padding: 2px;" width="580" /></span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="background-color: white;">Android 4.0 is an operating system in its own right, but instead of running on a dual boot setup, we install and run ICS within a free of charge virtualization application known as VirtualBox. VirtualBox runs like any other application or program on your machine, but offers the benefits of being able to install a secondary OS within it which can be invoked quickly by the user. For all those die hard iOS and Windows Phone fans out there, this is a perfect way to experience the delights of Android.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="background-color: white;">Are you ready for a whirlwind journey down Ice Cream Sandwich lane? Buckle in and follow the simple steps below.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="background-color: white;"><strong>Step 1:</strong> Head over to the official Oracle VM VirtualBox site and <a href="http://linkc.at/8YLyaG" style="border: 0px; color: #fc8901; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">download</a> the relevant VirtualBox binary for your computers operating system (Windows/Mac OS X/Linux/Solaris).</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-51140" height="251" src="http://cdn.redmondpie.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Step11.png" style="-webkit-box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; background-image: none !important; background-position: initial initial !important; background-repeat: initial initial !important; border: none !important; box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; padding: 2px;" width="540" /></span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="background-color: white;"><strong>Step 2:</strong> Find the saved location of the downloaded VirtualBox binary and install as you would with any other native application making sure to follow all on screen prompts and instructions.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="background-color: white;"><strong>Step 3:</strong> Head on over to the VMLite website and <a href="http://linkc.at/vZbeEu" style="border: 0px; color: #fc8901; text-decoration: none;">download</a> a copy of the Ice Cream Sandwich which has been preconfigured for virtualization and features seamless mouse support for navigation.

Install Windows 8 Developer Preview In VirtualBox Virtual Machine On Mac & Windows 7 [How-To Tutorial]

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;">Microsoft took the veil off Windows 8 officially this Tuesday along also seeded the first Developer Preview to public and gained massive attraction. While many have installed them on their spare computers, what if you don’t have one? Today we’re showing you how to run Windows 8 and mostly all its features from </span><em style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;">within</em><span style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"> your current operating system.</span></span><br /> <div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><img alt="" border="0" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-34273" height="256" src="http://cdn.redmondpie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Windows-8-logo.png" style="-webkit-box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; background-image: none; background-position: initial initial !important; background-repeat: initial initial !important; border: 0px none; box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding: 0px 0px 2px;" width="287" /></div><div style="background-color: white; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px;">In order to be up and running, all you’ll need is a free tool known as <a href="http://linkc.at/dFsiOR">Virtual Box</a>, which allows many operating systems to be installed as guests from within your main (host) system. You’ll also need the Windows 8 Developer Preview. Once you’re ready, just follow the steps below.</span></span></span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="background-color: white;"><strong>Step 1:</strong> Launch VirtualBox and click on the "New" button to create a new virtual machine. You’ll be asked to enter your new virtual machine’s name; just give it any name you wish. As for the operating system, you should select "Windows 7", as shown below.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><img alt="Create-New-Virtual-Machine" border="0" height="363" src="http://cdn.redmondpie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Create-New-Virtual-Machine1.jpg" style="-webkit-box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; background-image: none; background-position: initial initial !important; background-repeat: initial initial !important; border: 0px none; box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; display: block; float: none; margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px 0px 2px;" title="Create-New-Virtual-Machine" width="590" /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="background-color: white;"><strong>Step 2:</strong> You’ll now be asked to choose how much physical RAM you’d like to attribute to Windows 8. Typically, 1 GB is the ideal amount. You can go over it if you have the resources, just make sure you select nothing below 1 GB.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><img alt="Create-New-Virtual-Machine-1" border="0" height="363" src="http://cdn.redmondpie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Create-New-Virtual-Machine-11.jpg" style="-webkit-box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; background-image: none; background-position: initial initial !important; background-repeat: initial initial !important; border: 0px none; box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; display: block; float: none; margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px 0px 2px;" title="Create-New-Virtual-Machine-1" width="590" /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="background-color: white;"><strong>Step 3:</strong> You’ll now have to create a virtual hard drive: this is a file where the operating system will be installed. Just follow the on-screen instructions, but remember to choose a size equal to<em>or</em> above 20 GB, as shown below:</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><img alt="Create-New-Virtual-Disk" border="0" height="428" src="http://cdn.redmondpie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Create-New-Virtual-Disk1.jpg" style="-webkit-box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; background-image: none; background-position: initial initial !important; background-repeat: initial initial !important; border: 0px none; box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; display: block; float: none; margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px 0px 2px;" title="Create-New-Virtual-Disk" width="590" /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="background-color: white;"><strong>Step 4:</strong> Your virtual machine should have now been created, now you’re all set to run it. The first time the virtual machine is started, a first-run wizard will appear: simply select your Windows 8 image file when asked, click "Continue" and wait for the installation to begin.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><img alt="First-Run-Wizard" border="0" height="427" src="http://cdn.redmondpie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/First-Run-Wizard1.jpg" style="-webkit-box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; background-image: none; background-position: initial initial !important; background-repeat: initial initial !important; border: 0px none; box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; display: block; float: none; margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px 0px 2px;" title="First-Run-Wizard" width="590" /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="background-color: white;"><strong>Step 5:</strong> Once the installer has fully booted up, simply select your language settings and follow the standard installation process. Since it is similar to that of Windows 7, we won’t go over into much detail here.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><img alt="Windows-8-Running" border="0" height="489" src="http://cdn.redmondpie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Windows-8-Running1.jpg" style="-webkit-box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; background-image: none; background-position: initial initial !important; background-repeat: initial initial !important; border: 0px none; box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; display: block; float: none; margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px 0px 2px;" title="Windows-8-Running" width="590" /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="background-color: white;"><strong>Step 6:</strong> Once the installation is finished and your virtual machine reboots, you should be faced with Windows 8′s first run wizard. Just select your settings as you see fit, until you see Windows 8′s Start screen.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><img alt="Windows-8-Running" border="0" height="489" src="http://cdn.redmondpie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Windows-8-Running2.png" style="-webkit-box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; background-image: none; background-position: initial initial !important; background-repeat: initial initial !important; border: 0px none; box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; display: block; float: none; margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px 0px 2px;" title="Windows-8-Running" width="590" /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><div style="text-align: left;"><img alt="Windows-8-Running1" border="0" height="489" src="http://cdn.redmondpie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Windows-8-Running11.png" style="-webkit-box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; background-image: none; background-position: initial initial !important; background-repeat: initial initial !important; border: 0px none; box-shadow: transparent 0px 0px 0px !important; display: block; float: none; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; line-height: 18px; margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px 0px 2px;" title="Windows-8-Running1" width="590" /></div></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="background-color: white;">Keep in mind that although the screenshots above depict Windows 8 running on a Mac, the process is the same for all operating systems, as long as VirtualBox supports them.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;"><span style="background-color: white;">Enjoy Windows 8!</span></div></div>

However, Windows 7 is also includes a feature called "Windows Touch" that supports touchscreen input and multitouch functionality. For example, you can right-click a file by touching it with one finger and tapping it with another. You can also zoom in on an image by touching it with two fingers, then spreading your fingers apart. Windows 7 is bundled with several touch-ready programs that are designed for touchscreen use. </span></div><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"></span></span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22px;" /><div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, serif; line-height: 22px; text-align: justify;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #333333; font-size: medium;">Windows 7 also includes several new multimedia features. One example is "Play To," a program that allows you to </span><span style="color: #333333; font-size: medium;">stream audio and video to different computers or devices within your house. The "HomeGroup" feature makes it easy to share media files and other data between computers. It also makes it possible to share printers on a home network. The "Remote Media</span><span style="color: #009900; font-size: medium;"> </span><span style="color: #333333; font-size: medium;">Streaming" feature allows you to access the music, video, and photo libraries on your computer from remote locations. </span></span></div><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Arial, serif; font-size: medium; line-height: 22px;"><div style="text-align: justify;">The search feature in Windows 7, called "Windows Search," allows you to see results of searches as soon as you start typing in the search box. Windows Search categorizes the results by file type and displays text snippets that indicate where the search phrase was found in each result. After the search results are returned, it is possible to narrow the results by filtering them by date, file type, file size, and other parameters.

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br /> <div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;">Many modern motherboards have integrated graphics. They are suitable for every day tasks such as browsing the web, email, word processing etc. For many people the integrated graphics is more than enough for their needs. However, if you are into 3D Games, CAD, or other application that requires GPU acceleration then you will need a dedicated graphics card. Nearly all graphics card made nowadays are PCI-E based and have either Nvidia or ATI (AMD) chipset.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;">This is an nvidia GT430 graphics card. This model is made by Asus and has VGA, DVI and HDMI connectors. Remove the metal plate covering the PCI Express slot. If you have more than one PCI Express slot make sure you choose the PCI Express x16 slot.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.buildeasypc.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/gt430_pic1.jpg" style="color: #2c64b4; text-decoration: none;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1259" height="225" src="http://www.buildeasypc.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/gt430_pic1-300x225.jpg" style="border: none; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 100%; padding: 5px;" title="Place GT430 card in PCI-E socket" width="300" /></a></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;">Align the card with the slot and press down on the card until it is fully seated in the slot. Make sure the metal contacts on the card are completely inserted into the slot. There is a latch at the end of the slot which locks the card into place. Finally screw the card down using a screw driver so its securely seated.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.buildeasypc.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/gt430_pic2.jpg" style="color: #2c64b4; text-decoration: none;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1260" height="225" src="http://www.buildeasypc.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/gt430_pic2-300x225.jpg" style="border: none; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 100%; padding: 5px;" title="Screw the card into place" width="300" /></a></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><strong>Watch the Video Guide :</strong></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><iframe frameborder="0" height="299" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/sCdRuBaFHNQ?rel=0" width="530"></iframe></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: right;"><br /> </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: left;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">To power up your motherboard you need to attach the power cables from the power supply unit. Your case has many header cables which also needs to be connected to the motherboard so the switches, led, usb sockets on front panel of the case functions properly.</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Label 1 below shows the location of the ATX 2.0 power connector. It has 24 pins. It powers the motherboard and all the components. It has a fool proof design and only fits one way. Place the connector on top of the power socket making sure you are holding it the right way. Push the connector into the socket until it locks into position.<a href="http://www.buildeasypc.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/h55m-ud2h-motherboard.jpg" style="color: #2c64b4; text-decoration: none;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1202" height="295" src="http://www.buildeasypc.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/h55m-ud2h-motherboard-300x295.jpg" style="border: none; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 100%; padding: 5px;" title="h55m-ud2h-motherboard" width="300" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Label 2 shows the location of ATX 12 Volts connector. It has 4 pins. It powers the processor. The connector only fits one way. Push the connector into the socket until it locks into place.</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Label 3 shows the location for the header connectors. Your case has header cables for front USB, firewire, power switch, power LED, reset switch, speaker, etc. Connect each header cable to the labeled header as shown below. While attaching these little cables make sure the positive and negative pins are correct. Read your motherboard manual for more details.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.buildeasypc.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/step10_front_panel_cables.jpg" style="color: #2c64b4; text-decoration: none;"><img alt="" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-931" height="225" src="http://www.buildeasypc.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/step10_front_panel_cables-300x225.jpg" style="border: none; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; max-width: 100%; padding: 5px;" title="step10_front_panel_cables" width="300" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Watch the Video Guide :</strong></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><iframe frameborder="0" height="299" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/KlXgX5oWMzM?rel=0" width="530"></iframe></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /> </div><div style="text-align: left;"></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Before you close the case double check everything to make sure you have not missed anything like attaching a cable. Make sure you have no screws lying around as it can short the motherboard. Slide the side panel back on to the case and close the screws. If you are feeling confident you can leave the case open and power up the PC just to see if it boots and all the fans are spinning. You can also test your power button and reset button to make sure they work before closing the case.

If you have a different version of the Award BIOS their would be a lot of similarities. If your BIOS is AMI or Phoenix then the common BIOS features would have some similarities. Whatever BIOS you have, this setup guide should give you an idea about how to setup a BIOS. Please note that setting up BIOS incorrectly could cause system malfunction, therefore it is recommended that you also follow the BIOS guide provided on your motherboard manual. If you decide to make changes to certain options it is safer to make a note of what you have changed. Then restart the system to see how it performs. If the system behaves abnormally or becomes unstable you can revert back to your previous settings.</div><div align="left" style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

You can setup the CPU simply by selecting the speed i.e. Pentium III 750 from the list. This ensures that the CPU bus, multiplier, voltage etc, is correctly set for that particular CPU. However you can manually setup each feature if required. Once you have finished with the setup press ESC to return the previous menu. See figure 1.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Standard CMOS Features<a href="" name="standard_cmos" style="color: #2c64b4;"></a></b></span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here you can setup the basic BIOS features such as date, time, type of floppy etc. Use the arrow keys to move around and press enter to select the required option. You can specify what IDE devices you have such as Hard drive, CD-ROM, ZIP drive etc. The easiest way to setup the IDE devices is by leaving it set to auto. This allows the BIOS to detect the devices automatically so you don't have to do it manually. At the bottom, it also displays the total memory in your system. See figure 2.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Advanced BIOS Features<a href="" name="advanced_bios" style="color: #2c64b4;"></a></b></span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As you can see from figure 3, there are numerous advance settings which you can select if required. For most cases leaving the default setting should be adequate. As you can see the first boot device is set to floppy. This ensures that the floppy disk is read first when the system boots, and therefore can boot from windows boot disk. The second boot device is the Hard disk and third is set to LS120. If you want to boot from a bootable CD then you can set the third boot device to CD/DVD-ROM. See Figure 3.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Advanced Chipset Features<a href="" name="advanced_chipset" style="color: #2c64b4;"></a></b></span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Here you can setup the contents of the chipset buffers. It is closely related to the hardware and is therefore recommended that you leave the default setting unless you know what you are doing. Having an incorrect setting can make your system unstable. If you know that your SDRAM can handle CAS 2, then making changes can speed up the memory timing. If you have 128MB SDRAM then the maximum amount of memory the AGP card can use is 128MB. See Figure 4</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Inegrated Peripherals<a href="" name="ip" style="color: #2c64b4;"></a></b></span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This menu allows you to change the various I/O devices such as IDE controllers, serial ports, parallel port, keyboard etc. You can make changes as necessary. See figure 5.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>Power Management Setup<a href="" name="pm" style="color: #2c64b4;"></a></b></span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The power management allows you to setup various power saving features, when the PC is in standby or suspend mode. See figure 6.</span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><br /> </div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b>PnP/PCI Configurations<a href="" name="pnp_pci" style="color: #2c64b4;"></a></b></span></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This menu allows you to configure your PCI slots.
